| City of Palmdale’s “Walk on Words” Poetry Contest Now Open! |
Palmdale, CA – Calling all poets, wordsmiths and rhyme enthusiasts! The City of Palmdale is jazzed to announce the kickoff of its annual Walk on Words Poetry Contest, with this year’s theme being “Diversity.” In celebration of National Poetry Month in April, residents are invited to submit their compositions reflecting the rich tapestry that defines Palmdale.
“One of the things that makes Palmdale special is its diversity. That’s why I’m encouraging all residents — young and old — to participate in the Walk on Words Poetry Contest,” said Mayor Austin Bishop. “I hope we can use this contest as a fun way for the community to come together and celebrate the diversity that makes Palmdale such a great place to live.”
Don’t miss the chance to be part of this rad celebration of diversity. The contest is open to all ages and is completely free to enter. Just keep it family-friendly and original. Your poem should be no longer than eight lines (including the title) and no more than 25 characters per line, including spaces.
And here’s the lowdown — we’re not just looking for any poem. We want the ones that make us go, “wow!” Entries will be judged on their originality, creativity and overall artistic vibe.

From April 1 through April 30, let your imagination run wild and pen your lyrical masterpieces. Residents can submit their poems at www.cityofpalmdale.org/WoW. The winning poem will be immortalized in concrete at Yellen Park in May.
